MSI GT72 2PE Dominator Pro (072UK) Review

The tests were performed in an air conditioned room, holding temperatures at a constant 23c. This is a comfortable environment for most people reading.

Idle temperatures were measured after 30 minutes from initial boot up with the system inactive.

Load temperatures were measured when playing Tomb Raider – a Direct X 11 game that taxes both CPU and GPU extensively. All fan settings were left on BIOS defaults.

The cooling system inside the MSI GT72 2PE Dominator Pro is remarkable, the CPU holds at 72c under extended load (over an hour of stress testing).

We attached five diodes to the back of the chassis and measured the temperature (Celcius) after one hour of intensive work and gaming.
temps
The venting system on the MSI GT72 2PE Dominator Pro works very well – sucking in cool air from underneath and subsequently out the rear vents. With such high level hot running hardware, it is important not to cover these vents. We wouldn't recommend using the MSI GT72 2PE Dominator Pro on a lap or even on a bed, as the vents are likely to get partially blocked. A flat table surface is the perfect home for this monster.

  1. Can it run Internet Explorer? O.o

  2. I think the minimum specs required to run IE was with a Titan Z (and/or the AMD equivalent). Don’t quote me, I could be wrong.

  3. Don’t mind those people on fb carl or anyone of you from KG who’s reading, they are still kind of immature they don’t understand the meaning of Desktop Replacements may be cause they are not caught up in a tight schedule or just need power on the move and have access to pc when they need em.
    it’s a cool portable system right here designed for those who need em.
    it’s all about what you need where and when you need it and something that can fulfill that.
    I love desktops but these gaming laptops aren’t that far behind.

  4. Nice review
